Still
Unfortunately I couldn’t really find a copy of this track which was in high quality at Youtube. But still, as u guys can c, I got this one which has the lyrics. It is definitely an amazing song with power and encouragement for people who are in a situation of loss, pain and depression. This song is originally from HillSong United which is a famous Aussie Christian Music Band whose music has been introduced to many English-speaking countries and used in so many churches for praise and worship. The first time I paid attention to this song was actually at one of our cell meeting, one of our leaders, Michelle has introduced us this song with a story happened in the tsunami of 2006. But let’s stay with the topic of the song as I dont really wanna talk abt this story today. It was just yesterday, the lady who led the worship of our weekly cell meeting, has prepared this song again though she didnt choose to use it in the end. I was happy that Lord gave me this chance to know more about this song as the lady printed a copy of the lyrics 4 evryone so I finally learnt the name of the song.
I usually prefer those old hymns rather than these Temporary Christian Music. In some sort of stage, hymns use gorgeous words which sounds more literately and explain ideas in a deep and serious way. Some people might think hymns are hard cuz lots of the really old hymns do use tons of ancient words which can be hardly understood or never be used any more in the modern English. It might be also the reasons that hymns are slow (most of them are) and boring, too serious or just cannot be accepted by the young people because of their music favor or the tradition itself. But, I also understand, no matter whether it’s hymn or T.C.M, it is not important which music style we use to praise the Lord, it is our heart, our faith that will make the songs or hymns powerful. I was actually really shocked when the first time I walked into this church which I currently stay in n I do think I’ll be in it in the next few years. My soul felt encouraged during the play of the band, People sang together as the sound of drum were just beating our hearts. That did matter with the rhythm or the fast pace used in the rock music, but the thing was, I was moved by the feeling that people standing together and shout out their praise to God. I could faithfully declare that Lord was with us as the work of Holy Spirit was so significant that I couldn’t stop my tears. That was also the first time I recognize the value of music worship since I haven’t been experienced any of this sweet time when I was Chinese church. Well, I am not saying Chinese Church are boring or something even if I know sometimes they are. It’s actually decided by the tradition, or in my opinion, it’s like some sort of common characteristics for Chinese people. But never mind , I dont wanna talk about this either.<br/> I reckon that I jz couldnt focus on the topic that I was talking abt cuz I had too many ideas that I wanna share. Sri abt the stupid words I put here. I am tired, n gonna sleep soon…lol
